Hey all,
I’m feeling pretty defeated after doing everything I can to try and get my pc running again. Here’s the story
I got a new ekwb cpu cooler today and went to change it out, unfortunately I don’t have an efficient draining system so not all the liquid gets drained when I have to change something and when I went to remove one of my cpu soft tubes, the other end of the soft tube that was supposed to be secured came loose and liquid began leaking out from that spot pretty excessively. I did everything I could to clean and dry up as much of it as I could. It got on top of my psu in a small puddle but the puddle didn’t look like it flowed over into any ports. It also got within the psi’s wires. Again I couldn’t really see it having gone into the ports but I can’t rule it out that it didn’t because the liquid got fairly close to the them. It didn’t look like it touched anything on my mobo. After cleaning up as best as I could, I put the new waterblock on there and tried to give it a go. It turns on and begins cycling fluid, but monitors don’t post. Unplugging and replygging monitors into gpu refreshed the attempt to post but it doesn’t detect a signal sadly.
For further troubleshooting I pulled the gpu out of my stream PC and tried to get my pc to post with it and nothing. Then when I threw it back into my stream pc it would no longer post as well but it would turn on. The pcie power lights on the gpu would light up when I turn the pc on like it’s receiving power, but the fans for it don’t turn on as well. I guess these are separate issues but I’m running out of possible solutions or what the problem could be. Could I have messed up my mobo or psu? Is my whole pc cooked? I don’t smell anything burning and have tried reconnecting all psu cables and gpu and used multiple PCIE cables to try and power it.
game pc is a 10900k msi gaming x trio rtx 3090, msi z490 Meg godlike mobo,
merit: I’m beginning to think my mobo is done, I keep getting random dram errors one reboot, then vga, then cpu errors. After not touching anything and only rebooting. Is this likely the case? Also is it possible my other gpu is cooked?
